Who remembers this Tiger cover we published? Who remember Stretch Armstrong? There were 75 to win when readers voted in the Tiger Sports Star of the Year competition. The eventual winner was Peter Shilton
For 23 years I've had lots of online chats with Ian Wheeler He's interviewed me and I contributed to the fanzine he edited 'Eagle Flies Again'. We'd never met, until Saturday, when we had lunch at a local pub. It was great meeting and talking comics with such an expert!
